Christopher Cross, a quiet and staid cashier with dreams of becoming a painter, feels consumed by passion for the first time in his life when he meets pretty, manipulative Kitty. The two become involved, but Kitty is really in love with petty crook Johnny - she keeps Christopher around simply for his money. In order not to lose his precious mistress, Cross embezzles funds from his employer; he doesn't realize, however, that Kitty and Johnny are also getting rich on his paintings, which are becoming a huge success under Kitty's name. When Christopher's theft comes to light, he loses his job and his dignity. And when he seeks out Kitty for solace, he discovers her in Johnny's embrace. Furious, Christopher stabs Kitty repeatedly with an icepick. Then, he stands coldly by as Johnny is implicated, and finally executed, for the crime. (Kino Video)

Uma partida delicadamente jogada de triângulo amoroso. Apaixonar-se cegamente, mentiras, abuso, perda de si próprio e de tudo. Imprevisível no enredo, mestre na representação de personagens, apoiado por um grande elenco, com Edward G. Robinson a reinar absolutamente. Apaixonamo-nos por ele como espetadores e aguardamos com expectativa todas as cenas com ele. Encantador de emoções, o ator com a mímica mais honesta de sinceridade que alguma vez vi num filme. Quinta estrela por causa dele. [Noir Film Fest]
